This I am finding hard to believe.

My proposal is that the compositor maintain a xkb_state, and keystroke events have the result of xkb_state_key_get_syms(), xkb_state_key_get_consumed_mods(), etc added to them. Note the keycode is still there in the event.

For RDP this would be run on the actual machine that has the keyboard hardware and thus has access to the keyboard layout information.

Yes I know there are some details about modifiers and repeats, similar to the problems with the current scheme of syncing xkb_state between clients. But I hope that describes the basic idea. I would love to know why this "won't work" because I am just not seeing it.
